About me
Hi, I'm Melissa, and I'm a licensed counselor who offers virtual therapy from the United States. As a therapist, I aim to be an ally and a trusted source of support to sit with you through your pain and uncertainty.
I take a person-centered approach, which means I will meet you wherever you are on your mental health journey, and I also like to introduce practical tools to help you notice your progress in our work together. I have experience in grief and trauma, and I've worked extensively in the international humanitarian sector as well as with military families.
Whether you're looking for someone to support you through a difficult time, relationship, or situation, or you want to dig deeper into your life and search for meaning, connection, or understanding, I invite you to reach out to see if I'd be a good fit for you.

Approach
I am a trained therapist with a passion for working with those who live and work in high-stress, high-threat environments. I have spent time living and working in various countries around the world, including Ghana, Australia, and Nepal, and I aim to help people find balance while they navigate new, difficult, or unstable environments around the world. I also have an interest in helping people navigate the impacts of climate change on their mental health. I understand the need for flexibility and approach each client in a way their supports their individual wellness needs.
